3. PAINTING • The expression of ideas and emotions, with the creation of certain aesthetic qualities, in a
two-dimensional visual language. • An artist’s decision to use a particular medium, such as tempera,
fresco, oil, acrylic, watercolour or other water-based paints, ink, gouache, encaustic, or casein

4. • The pigment may be in a wet form, such as paint, or a dry form, such as pastels. • Painting can also
be a verb, the action of creating such an artwork.

5. Need to Know: • Pigment: Nearly all paint colors come from nature. Dirt, rock, plants, etc. are the raw
material, which is ground down into what is called a pigment. • Acrylic Paint: A thick shiny paint made
by mixing pigment with water and an acrylic base. Dries within a few hours. • Poster Paint: A solid
water-based paint that dries to a matt finish.

6. • Fresco: The word is Italian for "fresh". The technique involves painting with dry pigment on wet
plaster. Fresco a secco involves painting on dry plaster. • Oil Paint: A thick, shiny paint made by mixing
pigment with oil (usually linseed). Takes several days to dry. • Tempera: A water-based paint that may or
may not be mixed with egg yolks (egg tempera). •Watercolor: A soft and see-through (transparent) paint
made from pigment, water and gum Arabic.

7. BRIEF HISTORY OF PHILIPPINE PAINTING

8. • Artistic paintings were introduced to the Filipinos in the 16th century when the Spaniards arrived in
the Philippines. • the Spaniards used paintings as religious propaganda to spread Catholicism
throughout the Philippines. These paintings, appearing mostly on church walls, featured religious figures
appearing in Catholic teachings. • In the early 19th century, wealthier, educated Filipinos introduced
more secular Filipino art, causing art in the Philippines to deviate from religious motifs.

9. ELEMENTS

10. • The elements of painting are the basic components or building blocks of a painting (and art
generally). In Western art they are generally considered to be: • Color • Tone (or value) • Line (a narrow
mark made by a brush, or a line created where two things meet) • Shape (2D, can be positive or
negative) and Form (3D) • Space (or volume) • Texture (or pattern)

11. Color • is the most basic element of a painting. Every color has three aspects to it: hue or name,
value or tone, and intensity. • Hue – Pure Color (Red, Blue…..). • Value – Amount of Black or White in
color. • Intensity – Degree of Purity of color.

12. Tone • refers to the degree of lightness or darkness of an area. • Tone varies from the bright white
of a light source through shades of gray to the deepest black shadows.
13. Line • Is used to control our eye, create unity and balance. Help construct meanings. • Line can be
described as a moving dot. Line is perhaps the most basic element of drawing.

14. Shape • an element of art that is a two-dimensional area that is defined in some way. A shape may
have an outline around it or you may recognize it by its area. • Geometric shapes - precise shapes that
can be described using mathematical formulas. Ex. Circle, square, triangle, oval, rectangle,
parallelogram, trapezoid, pentagon, pentagram, hexagon, and octagon.

15. • Freeform Shapes - also called organic shapes, are irregular and uneven shapes. Their outlines may
be curved, angular, or a combination of both • Form - an element of art, means objects that have three
dimensions. I like to think of form as a 3-D shape
